volume  contains  an  authentic  account  of  the  proceedings  of 
the  Sons  of  New  Hampshire,  together  with  the  speeches,  songs  and 
sentiments  delivered  on  the  occasion  of  their  second  Festival,  held 
in  the  city  of  Boston,  November  2,  1853  ;  also  copies  of  the  letters 
received  from  such  invited  guests  as  were  unable  to  be  present.  — 
and  a  registry  of  names. 

This  celebration,  was  to  have  taken  place  last  year,  in  conformity 
with  the  resolutions  passed  at  the  first  Festival,  but  it  was  postponed 
in  consequence  of  the  demise  of  the  President  of  the  Association, 
the  lamented  DANIEL 


It  has,  therefore,  been  deemed  appropriate  to  incorporate  with 
these  pages  the  transactions  of  the  Sons  of  New  Hampshire,  in 
connection  with  those  of  the  citizens  of  Boston,  on  the  occasion  of 
Mr.  Webster's  death,  and  the  obsequies  in  honor  of  his  memory. 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  interest  manifested  in  the  first  Festival 
had  not,  in  the  least,  declined  ;  and  that  this  second  family  gather- 
ing, like  the  preceding,  has  afforded  the  highest  gratification  to  all 
who  participated  in  its  pleasures. 

The  present  volume,  it  is  hoped,  will  prove  not  less  acceptable 
than  the  former,  both  to  the  members  who  remain  at  home  and  to 
those  who  have  emigrated  from  the  land  of  their  birth  ;  and  that 
it  may  afford  another  illustration  of  the  veneration  and  love  of  Xew 
Hampshire  men  for  their  native  State,  and  their  laudable  de>ire  to 
perpetuate  the  renoM'n  of  her  sons.

Tins  VOLUME,  recording  the  transactions  of  the  Sons  of 
Hampshire,  at  their  second  Festival  in  Boston,  as  expressed  in  the 
introductory  observations,  is  herewith  respectfully  presented  to  the 
public.  It  may  be  regarded  as  a  historical  work  of  increasing 
interest,  more  copious  than  the  one  that  preceded  it,  and  equally 
valuable  and  interesting. 

The  fraternal  sentiment  that  pervaded  the  assembly  and  animated 
it  in  all  its  proceedings,  is  a  marked  feature  in  the  history  of  this 
organization.  The  publishers  have  therefore  exerted  themselves  to 
preserve  a  faithful  record,  not  only  of  the  Festival,  but  also  of  the 
facts  and  the  circumstances  which  belong  to  the  period  in  which 
this  association  took  active  and  laudable  measures  for  honoring  the 
memory  of  their  late  illustrious  President, — and  it  is  believed  that 
no  volume  extant  has  more  minutely  preserved  an  exact  memorial 
of  the  ceremonies,  in  public  and  private,  in  relation  to  the  List 
demonstrations  of  respect  for  Mr.  AVi-:i;sTKii. 

It  would  be  unnecessary  to  describe  particularly  the  contents  of 
the  accompanying  pages,  as  they  exhibit  in  a  lively  manner  the 
social  character,  energy  and  indomitable  love;  of  early  home  asso- 
ciations which  were  recalled  by  these  festivities. 

Hoping  that  the  work  may  prove  acceptable  and  honorable  to  the 
Son-,  of  \c\\-  Hampshire,  wherever  their  lot  may  lie  pub- 

lisher-   sul, mil    tlic    results    of  their    typographical     Labors    to   them 
and  to  posterity  with  entire  confidence  and  sincere  regard.

"\V.  F.  SHAW'S  store  was  most  tastily  arranged,  ami  attracted,  perhaps 
more  notice  than  any  other  in  the  aeighborhood.  A  shield  was  exl 

fri..!ii  one  of  tin-  window-;  with  thirteen  stars  on  its  borders,  surrounded  by 
a  h<-avy  drapery  of  black  velvet.  This  was  much  admired. 

PARTRIDGE'S  store,  No.  lldl,  presented  a  solemn  appearance.  The 
motto  — 

"  lie  in  gl'-'ry —  Aiceri'-a  in  : 

showed  finely,  and  a  wax  figure,  representing  Columbia  in  mourning,  added 
to  the  attraction. 

The  store  of  HILT,,  LINCOLN  &  (!I-:I-:K  was  arrayed  in  deep  mourning, 
and  displayed  a  tasteful  mourning  alcove,  enclosing  a  bust  of  Webster. 

Last,  but  not  the  least  in  importance  that  came  to  our  view,  wa<  the  cele- 
brated Piano  Manufactory  of  JoNAS  ('IIK-KHUNI;.  The  draperic-  on  this 
ranged  in  a  very  superior  style,  and  were  the  theme  oi'  universal

On  Monday  afternoon,  tlie  Si-loot  Committee  reported  to  the  Legislature, 
that  in  accordance  with  instructions,  they  had  waited  on  lion.  Franklin 
J'ieree,  who  liail  charged  them  with  an  expres.-ion  of  his  gratitude  for  the 
invitation  to  join  the  Legislature  in  attending  the  obsequies  of  Daniel  V\  eb- 
:  Uoston;  but  that  engagements  he  could  not  obviate  precluded  him 
from  accepting  it. 

Governor  Martin  arrived  in  Concord  on  Monday,  hopeful  of  being  enabled 
•  •ml  the  funeral  ceremonies  ;  but   an  obdurate    illness,  of  <-cveral  days 
duration,  compelled  him  to  resign  his  intention  late  that  evening. 

The  cars  left  Concord  at  a   quarter  past  six  o'clock,  and  after  a  very 
pleasant  journey  the   "assembled  wisdom"  of  the  old  (Jranite  Sta'c.  accom- 
panied by  numbers  of  citizens,  reached  the  Lou  ell  depot,  in  this  city,  at  nine 
:..     Here  they  were  met  by  the  "  Sons  of  New  Hampshire,"  with  their 
Chairman,    M.    1*.    Wilder,    at  their  head.     The   I're.-ident    of  the    New 
ate,    the  Executive  Council  and  the  Legislature,  were   tlun 
introduced  to  31r.  Wilder  by  Mr.  J.  II.  Wiggin,  of  Dover,  Chairman  of  the 
New  Hampshire  Legislative  Committee  on  the  Uesolves  concerning  the  Death 
of  Daniel  Webster.     Mr.  Wilder  addressed  them  as  follows : 

Mr.  President  of  the  Senate, 

and  Licnthmen  of  the  Nciv  Hampshire  Legislature: 

Tn  behalf  of  the  Sons  of  Xew  Hampshire,  resident  in  Ik'stcn  and  \l

Occasions  of  mourning  come  to  communities  and   nations  as  they  do  to 
individuals  and  families  of  the  hnnian  race.      This  is  an  unusual  a--embl;!go. 
•  nd  Ni.w  Bampshire  have  together  passed  tl  aes  of 

trial  and  suffering,  and  together  enjoyed  the  nation's  triumphs,  and  partici- 
pated in  the  nation's  prosperitv.  Hut  now  in  the  general  bereavement  they 
are  peculiarly  atllicted.  New  Hampshire  has  had  no  such  other  son  ;  Mas- 
sachusetts has  had  no  such  other  citi/eii  as  WcK-ter.  Amid  the  solemni- 
ties of  death  the  difference-;  :>f  life  shall  be  forgotten,  and  from  the  common 
grief  shall  spring  sentiments  of  patriotism  and  religion,  whose  influence  shall 
be  felt  in  coming  centuries  of  our  country's  existence,  (•entlemen,  we  ac- 
cept your  piv.-eiice  as  an  elevated  token  of  respect  for  the  illustrious  dead, 
and  as  an  a-.-nrancc  that,  with  the  other  States  of  th>  cuiifcdcracy.  cur 
principles,  our  hopes,  our  destiny,  arc  one. 

Mr.  Wells  responded  as  follows: 

Sir:

Then  it  was,  sir.  that  the,  mass  of  New  Hampshire  hearts  were  turned, 
warmly,  towards  him.  That  act" of.  patriotic  devotion  to  his  country  swept

even  with  the  top  of  the  stationary  rostrum,  extending  the  entire  width  of 
the  Hall,  and  in  front,  so  a-  to  cover  tin:  reporters'  places.  The  front  ol'the 

platform  was  handsomely  draped.     On  it  were  placed  sofas  for - 

fthe  invited  guests,  furnishing  seats   fur  about  t\vo  hundred.      In 

UP  of  the  platform,  was  HKM.KV'S  beautiful  picture  of  Web.-ier,  replying 

to  Ilavne,  very  deeply  shrouded  in   mourning  drapery,  and  so  lighted  as   to 

give    it    the  most    splendid   appearance   we   have  ever   seen    it  present.      It

lips,  as  we    gazed   upon    his  loved  form.      The   arrangement  of  the  drapery 

around  the  painting  was  very  neat  and   appropriate.      Jieneath   the  painting 

was  the  inseription  in  letters  of  silver  — 

"Wo  claim  him  ?>>r  . \nurica.'' 

in  the  platform  oceupied  by  the  orator,  and  at  his  right  hand,  was 
placed  upon  a  highly  polished  marble  pedestal,  KINO'S  beautiful  and  true 
bust  of  Webster.  It  is  of  the  purest  white  marble,  and  in  point  of  execu- 
tion is  faultless.  Its  presence  could  but  add  beauty  and  grandeur  to  the 
scene.  We  understand  that  this  splendid  work  of  art  is  to  remain  in  Faneuil 
Hall,  it  having  been  purchased  by  a  number  of  gentlemen,  and  presented  to 

v  fur  that  purpose. 

On  the  right  and  left  of  ilcaley's  painting,  were  seen  the  portraits  of

When  I  last  had  the  pleasure  of  a  cull  at  your  house,  a  few  (.lays  since, 
you  signified  your  desire  to  contribute,  in  a  pecuniary  way,  towards  defray-

of  the  obsequies  of  our  late,,  lamented  brother,  Daniel  Webster. 

[n  conformity  with  my  promise  to  confer  with  you  again   on   this  subject, 
L  have  HOW  most  respectfully  to  State,  that   such   amount   as  you   may  wish 
to   dispense   for  this   purpose  will  be  gratefully   received    and    faithfully

•  presented  a  magnificent  appearance.     Silver  and  other  > 
filled   with  all  the  luxuries  that  could  tempt  the  most  fastidious  palate, 
-littered  in.  every  direction,     Scattered  over  all  were  hundreds  of  el 
boii'iuets,  formed  of  newly  plucked  {lowers,  the  exquisite  odors  of  whicli  were 
:nily  surpassed  by  their  gay  and  beautiful  colors.      One  bouquet  in  front  of 
the  President's  chair,  set  in  a  large  silver  vase,  and  containing,  hundreds  of 
ims,  struck  our  eye  as  particularly  beautiful. 

The  hall  was  lighted  by  gas,  and  elegant  chandeliers,  which  presented  a 
line  effect.  On  all  sides,  the  most  significant,  appropriate,  and  elaborate 
adornments  were  spread  before  tin;  eye.  The  immense  hall  was  one  vasl 
veno  of  beauty  and  taste.  In  whatever  direction  the  visitor  turned  hi.- 
::a7.e,  it  was  certain  to  meet  with  some  felicitous  object  or  saying  : 
beautiful  color  or  appropriate  motto;  some  sketch  or  design  adapted  per- 
fectly to  the  occasion  ;  some  harmonious  blending  of  nature  and  art  ;  some 
delightful  scene  that  could  but  stamp  on  the  memory  the  mopt  pleasurabL 
emotions,  and  leave  in  the  mind  the  sweetest  recollections  of  the  festive 
-ion. 

The  ante-room  was  adorned  with  a  rich  display  of  flags,  arranged  in 
most  graceful  manner,  and  variegated  with  wreaths  of  evergreen  ;:;;d  fl( 
;md  hemlock,  and  other  decorations. 

Pasr-iii"1  fruiii  the    ante-room    into    the  hall  was  a  grand  arch   <

And,  in  view  of  the  closing  hour  of  his  life,  fringed  with  the  rosy  tints  of  a 
fairer  to-morrow;  in  view  of  his  serenity  of  mind,  his  Christian  resignation, 
ami  his  hope  of  a  glorious  immortality,  may  we  not,  with  little  modification, 
add  the  other  lines  of  this  beautiful  stanza  — 

"  Though  round  liis  l>rea-t  the  i-cllinir  clouds  were  spread,

[Cheers.] 

These,  all  these,  have  passed  from  the  scenes  of  earth.  ISut  it  is  not  for 
rue  to  pronounce  their  eulogies.  Their  important  public  services  are  their 
best  monuments  ;  their  untarni.-hed  lame  their  best  epitaphs, — 

"  Tim'  il:>:i'l,  they  speak  in  reason's:  cur, 
Anil  in  example  live." 

Aye.  brothers,  in  that  serene  upper  sky,  to  which  we  trust  they  have 
ascended,  where  we  hope  to  meet  them  at  lust,  and,  beneath  the  rainbow 
about  the  throne,  to  celebrate  a  more  enduring  and  glorious  festival. 

Tluv  same  inscrutable  Providence  which  has  removed  them,  has  spared  us 
to  labor  on  amidst  the  cares,  joys,  and  pleasures  of  life.  "\Vc  meet  here  to- 
night to  revive  past  friendships,  to  form  new  acquaintances,  to  strengthen 
the  bonds  of  our  common  brotherhood,  and  to  honor  our  native  State. 

"What  a  tide  of  hallowed  associations  cluster  around  the  homes  of  our 
childhood  !  —  the  hand  which  rocked  our  cradle- — the  parents  who  nurtured 
us  —  ;  and  hills  — the  brooks  and  vales  —  the  district  school- 

—  tiie  village  church  —  the  family  mansion,  and 

'•Tin'  old  clni,  that  h:ith  lieen  our  joy 
I'ruin  very  ohildbood  up.'' 

The  which  the-;1  remembrances  awaken  flow  from  the  purest 

if  tli;'  human  soul.      Cease  to  remember  the  land  of  our  birth  ! 
bile  the  granite  (if  her  heaven-piercing  hills  shall  endure — not  while 
gratitude  shall  be  the  grateful  language  of  the  heart.

And  then.  :-ir,  yuu  remember  the  wise   old  fox,  who  thought  it  lic.-t  to  let 

the  pre.-eiit  incumbents  remain,  for  fear  that  the  new  swarm  would  be  more

think  the  old  fox  a  very  wise  and  conservative  Reynard.     ]3ut  not  quite  so

abandoning  his  comrade  to  the  tender  mercies  of  old  Jmiin. 

And  perhaps  that  simulating  man  on  the  ground,  deceiving    the  olfactories

I  r.  member  another  fable,  Mr,  and  that  was  probably  inserted  that  there 
might  be  :i  like  ]e>son  for  the  fair  sex  as  well  as  for  ours.  I  allude  to  that 
dainty  dairy  maid,  who  was  tossing  her  head  so  superciliously  with  that 
unfortunate  pail  of  milk  upon  it.  [Laughter.]  A  lesson  intended,  no 
doubt,  to  teach  our  fair  sisters  the  danger  of  tossing  the  head,  especially 
when  all  their  wealth  is  upon  it.  [Vociferous  cheering.]

al  least  twenty  years,  (some  friend  in  his  kindness  suggests  it  most  be  nearer 
thirty,  and  alas,  me  !  it  may  be  so,)  and  I  allude  to  these  things  to  .-huw

.Mr.  W 1 1.  IT.  u  said  that  the  (\  mmittcc  authorized  by  the  roohitien  wouV 
be  announced  through  the  pre»  at  un  early  day.  and  then  gave  as  the  thirl 
regular  sentiment  —

heart  ami  band  with  her  native-;^  i.s  in  \ •rmnutiiig  her  pro.-perit y  :u.d  ,u!'  ry. 

He  said,  he  was  not  aware  that  there  was  any  official  in  the  room  at  the 
time  to  answer  to  that  sentiment,  and  he  would  call  upon  the  Hon.  •]" 
"\Vii.Ki.\Sv:  Ex-Senator  of  this  Commonwealth. 


•I  dislike  apologies;  tut-  1  liaye';  great  respect  for  facts.  It  is  a  fact  t'.ia;. 
the  first  intimation  I  received  that:  1  was  expected  to  contribute  to  the  enter- 
tainment of  this  evening,  in  the  way  of  a  speech,  was  made  to  me  this  after- 
noon at  the  State  House!  when  the'  President  asked  me  to  respond  to  the 
sentiment  just  announced.  On  pleading  my  utter  want  of  preparation,  lie 
-replied  that  I  must  do:  it,  or  get-  some  one  else.  So  calling  to  mind  the 
faye-oO  the  Farmer  and  the  Larks,  the  moral  of  which  is,  that  if  you  wan: 
anything?;  to,  be1  done,;  do  it-  yourself,  and  if  you  do  not,  call  upon  yi  or 
neighbors,;  I  concluded  to  say  a  fevf.  words  for  the  good  old  Commonwealth.

J>ut  'fortunately,  M  r.  President  an  1   gentlemen,  the   Bubje< 
ment  ju-t  announced  US  One  on  wliich  any  one  may  speak,  prepared  or  unpre- 
pared.    For  we  cannot  open  a   page  of  her  history  without  being  di 
with  the  splendor  of  her  deeds  and  the  renown  of  .her  sons,      [dicers.]

.but  in  a  more/  lateral   and  less  direct  manner.     So,  also,  who

-aall  we  behold  a  galaxy  more  splendid  than  that  which  embraces  licr  Kvi;u- 
;:TT  ;uul  her  BANTKOKT,  her  J'KKN  OTT  and  her  HAWTHORNE  ?  Who  of  us  would 
i  ml  in  the  same  relation  to   those  worthies  that  the  sons  of 
do  ?      [Applause.] 

in,  are  we  not  all  admirers  of  the  institutions  of  the  Old  B-iy  State; 

'leg.'-,  her  institutions  of  benevolence,  her  inline  hospitals,  her  pau- 
per establishments?  AVliere  shall  we  look  for  her  equal  in  all  these 

ta  '.  Where,  al.so,  shall  we  look  for  a  richer  display  of  the  produc- 
tions of  ingenuity  and  industry  than  is  to  be  seen  at  her  Mechanics'  Fair? 
Where  for  a  finer  exhibition  of  the  products  of  the  soil  than  in  her  agricul- 
tural and  horticultural  shows?  And  finally,  where  for  a  more  admirable 
exhibition  of  horses  than  one  recently  made  at  Spi-in^ield  ? 

itlemen,  we  all  feel  and  know  that  there  is  something  lovely  and 
attractive  in  this  good  old  Commonwealth  —  else  why  are  we  here  ?  We 
have  left  our  native  hills  and  valleys  to  take  shelter  under  her  wing  ;  to 
mingle  our  labors  and  toils  with  those  of  her  sons  and  other  citizens,  and  to 
contribute  what  we  may  to  her  wealth  and  her  renown.  AYhile,  therefore,  it 
is  our  iwullar  pride  this  day  that  we  are  sons  of  New  Hampshire,  let  us 
also  rejoice  that  we  arc  citizens  of  Massachusetts, 
In  conclusion,  I  offer  this  sentiment :

It  was  a  beautiful  custom  of  the  (!  reeks  to  send  from  home  their  young 

adventurers,  with  a  public-  consecration  under  the  guardianship  of  their  tute- 

lary divinities.     The  colonist-  departed  as  the  children,  and  not  as  the  sul- 

jects  of  the  State.     Their  political  relations  were   exchanged  for  those  of 

filial  affection  and    religious  reverence.     They  owed   to   their  native  land 

nothing  but  love.      In   their   new  homes   they  built    temples,  and   dedicated 

to  the  god-  their  fathers  \vnr>hippeil.  and  hoii<>red  them  with  nm-e-tral

lation, [n  some  large  vilhtg'1.-,  nut  a  young  man  who  lias  attained  his  ma- 
jority within  the  la.-t  ten  year.-,  remains  at  home.  Those  who  have  sought 
the  I'll  Dorado  of  the  west,  I  feur,  will  not  succeed  as  they  hoped.  Like 
children,  they  have  chased  the  rainbow,  and  possibly  they  may  find  the  pot 
of  money  buried  at  its  terminus.  13 ut  let  time  and  experience  determine 
that  question. 

At  pivsent  the  true  policy  of  Xew  Hampshire  is  education,  intellectual 
and  moral  culture.  It  is  her  true  province  to  originate  and  develop  mind 
and  -kill.  With  Yankee  foresight  .-he  has  already  embarked  in  the  "skill

number  and  resources.      Within  twenty-live  years  her  academic  pupils  have 
•  jiiadrupled.      Her  College,  during    the   same    time,  has   increased   its 
numbers  nearly  one-third.      These   facts   show  that    Xew  Hampshire   under- 
stands her  de.-tiny  ;   and  if  thousands  of  the  young,  the   strong  and    enter-

are  to  the  superior  cultivation  of  literature  and  science.      [Cheer-.] 
The  Spartan  was  a  model  of  obedience,  discipline    and    courage  ;    the 
Etruscan  was  distinguished   in  arts,  and  powerful  in  arms  ;   the  early  Eng- 
lishman as  steady  and  vigorous  as  the  later  ;  but  all   owe  the  respect    in 
which  their  memory  is  held,  and  even  the  knowledge  which  we  have  of  their 
discipline  and   achievement,  to   the  faithful   and  eloquent  record  of  their 
rival-   or  successors.      Fortunate  is  the  nation  which  docs  brave  deeds,  and 
doubly  fortunate  if  it  produce  a  historian  to  narrate,  or  a  poet  to  sing  them. 
Of  those,  Mr.  I're.-ident,  who  may  thus  honor  the  State  by  cultivating 
Mid  dilVu.Miig  the  spirit  of  art.  and  learning,  and  science,  New  Hampshire  has 
'i-th  some,  has  cherished  others,  and,  on  the  whole,  as  parent  or  guar- 
dian, will  be  thought,  I  hope,  not  to  have  fallen  below  her  proper  rank. 
[Applause.]     She  is  not,  indeed,  equal  in  every  respect  to  her  more  fortunate 
neighbors  :   she  cannot  boast  of  historians  such  as  Massachusetts  enrols  on 

roll  of  fame;  yet,  in  many  departments   she  has  done  well,   in 
she    i.s    eminent.     Especially  in   her   professional    literature,   written    and 
unwritten,  will  she  stand  honorably  among  her  sister  States.    Where,  in  the

]>ut   there  is  yet  another  way  in  which   she  has  done  something  for  t In- 
State.      She  was  not  founded  for  New  Hampshire  alone.     Established  with

beginning  to  the  two  great  objects  of  being  a  handmaid  of  religion  and  a 
mistress  of  learning,  that  both  might  be   diffused,  each   moving  in  harmony 
with  the  other,  she  ha.-  gathered  her  sons  from  various  regions,  and,  invigor- 
ating thuir  bodies  by  the  freslvuir  of  the  mountains,  and  their  minds  by  the 
discipline  of  her  studies,  she  lias  sent  them  forth  in  due  time,  East,  West, 
Xorth  and  South,  through  every  State,  all  over  the  world.     [Applause.] 
She    might  ask  you  to  accompany  her,  as  with  a  mother's  pride   (ma^ni 
mater  amor  is)  she  followed  one  and  another  in  his  path  through  life.     She 
would  take  you  beyond  the  seas,  and  point  to  some  standing  before  kings  as 
representatives  of  their  country  ;  to  others  on  the  shores  of  the  Bosphoru-,

'"make  a  Christian  and  intelligent  nation  Out  of  a  people  superstitious,  igno-

schools  and  incipient  colleges,  and  directing  the  printing  presses  of  Oregon 
and  California.     Leading  you  back  from  the  great  circuit,  she  would  pause 
in  every  State  in  the  Union,  and  name  the  writers,  the  jurists,  the  senators, 
in  whose  breeding  she  had  sonic  share  ;  and,  finally,  ending  where  she  began,

THE  I'ur.siniivr.  Gentlemen;  I  have  alluded,  in  my  opening  remarks, 
to  the  removal  of  some  of  our  distinguished  associates,  bv  death,  since  our 
last  Festival.  I  beg  that  you  will  rise  and  stand  in  silence,  while  1  announce

Tin:  I'uKsii'KNT.  Gentlemen;  we  have  many  friends  present  this  evening, 
from  whom  we  hope  to  hear;  but  I  dare  to  proceed  no  further  without

When  one  Ins  ended,  or  is  about  to  end  his  mortal  career,  it  is  according 
to  thir  common  custom  to  call  upon  the  clergy.      I  would  venture  to  hope, 
ho\vever,-tli;it  it  is- not  the  a[pproae!iing  end  of  this  Festival  which  In- 
rise  to  the  sentiment  just   anmninccd.      1  would   hope   that    there   arc   many 
yet  to  sneak  to  you,  and  that  you  will   be  alive  to  hear.      A>  I   I 
upon  the  seething  sea  of-  emotion  that  has  swelled  around  us  to-night,  it  has 
Beemed   to   me  that  we  ought    to   have  been  Jirc-/>nrn  ;   and   1   -hould  not  be

A-  Hampshire,  we  turn  back  to  our  venerated  mother  and 

our  ancestral  home-,  and  ennfe-s,  every  one  of  us,  to  a  tender  place  jn  our

"ould  counthrv  is  the  best."    There  are  tenderer  ties  anl  holier  a--ociation- 

connected  with  our  early  home  than  with  any  other  spot   that  <!od   permit-; 

his  Min  to  .-mile  upon.     There  is  the  same  old  farm-house,  hastening,  indeed, 

to  its  ruin;    the  same  good  <>!d  fire  glows  upon  the  ample  hearth.-tone  ;   the 

same  well-thumbed  family  Bible  lies  as  ever  upon  the  altar ;  the  same  old 

•i  bucket  hangs  in  the  well  :  "   the  same  old  tree  waves    its  branches 

over   the  dwelling  ;   the   same  mountain  rears  its  head  behind  it  ;   the  same 

w  and  lawn  stretches  out  before  it;   aye,  and  happy  are  those  of  us 

;i  1  the  ,-ame  parental  faces,  wrinkled  though   they  be,  .-miling  within.

in  vain.      [Applau- 

Mr.  I're.-ident,  as  I  think  of  ourselves,  wanderers  from  home,  I  can  but 
join  in  a  sentiment  ofregrei  for  the  mother  State.  Her  .-oil  is  ,-terile.  She 
has  l;t:  .  Her  rivers  are  not  navigable.  She  has  but  a  limited 

.  't.      She  labors  under  difficulties  not  alone  in  getting  !. 
She  has,  it  is  true,  many  distinguished  sons   at   home   tilling   places  of  re- 
sponsibility and  usefulness  in  her  institutions  of  learning,  in  the  pulpit,  at 
the  bar,  in  the  workshop  and  manufactory,  and  among  the  noble  tillers   of 
>il.      [Applause.]      Though  a  large  portion  of  the  vigor  and  ambition 
of  the  State  goes  out  elsewhere  to  toil,  leaving  an  air  of  desolation  behind, 
there  is  yet  sun-light  and  joy  in  all  her  borders.      No  wonder  that   parental 
are  yearning  al'ier  u-  OS  \\  e  go.      Our  brothers  and  sisters  look  upon 
our   absence  \\ith  regret,  but  upon   our  prosperity  with  joy.      Aye,  to-night 
the\  in  spirit,  rejoicing  in  these  l''.-ti\  ities.      [Applause.]

shire, a-  has  been   intimated  here   to-night,  are  found  elsewhere.      They  are 
abroad.      They  have  filled,  and  are  filling  the  pulpits  of  other  States,  and  I 
trust  with  u-ci'ulni'-s  and  honor.     I  will  take  the  liberty  of  mentioning  one 
Mian,  who  was  a  native  of  New  I!amp.-hirc;  a  man  born  and  nurtured 
in  poverty,  who  was  not   permitted   to  enjoy  even   the   blessings  of  a  com- 
mon  school  education;  whose  earliest  attainments  were  by  the  light  of  a 
pine  knot,  and  who.-e  first  efforts  at  penmanship  were  upon  the  bark  of  the 
birch  tree;  a  man  who  made  his  way  unaided  from  the  theology  in  which  he 
Was  born  to  one   infinitely  more  generous,  and  who  filled  one  of  the  pulpits 
of  our  city  for  thirty-five  years;   a  man  who  has  done  more  to  change  the 
p  New  Kngland   than   any  other   person  ;   whose   genius  enabled 
him,  with  every  word  as  it  were,  to  lay  bare   the  heart  of  some  old  error, 
and  has  given  us    to-night  a  clearer   consciousness   of  Our    common   brother- 
Listened  to  with  rapture   by  •  ''lies,  whether  in 

.,  lo   the  very  day  of  his  death;   and  who,  at   the  ad\ 
four   score   and    en  from    his    labors.      The   name   of  llu-i:  \

31  r.  President,  if  1  were  a  Dr.  of  Divinity,  or  even  a  simple  lU-v.,  I 
•-hould  preach  the  sons  of  New  Hampshire  here  present  a  short  sermon, 
.'Vom  a  short  text ;  and  all  in  honor  of  those  good  old  grand-mothers  of  New 
Hampshire.  My  text,  sir,  would  be,  "There  were  giants  in  those  days." 
[Prolonged  cheers.] 

I  should  take  }~ou,  sir,  away  back  in  the  vista  of  years  to  the  time  when 
the   principles   of   political    and    religious   liberty  were    but    a    myth,    an 
abstraction;  and  I  should  show  you,  sir,  that  these  principles  of  civil  and 
religious  liberty  were  first   put   forth  by  the  sons  of  New  Hampshire,  and 
;hat  they  first  pledged  their  lives  and  sacred  honors  to  the  maintenance  of 
principles;   and   I  should  state  to  you,  sir,  that  there  were  "giants  in 
days."     I  should   come  along  down  a  little  further,  in  the  bluest 
times  that  came  over  us  during  our  revolutionary  struggle,  when  the  ene- 
mies of  the  country  were  victorious  in  all   quarters,  and  its  friends  began 
to  cool,  and  look  upon  all  as  hopeless.     Then  I  should  point  you  to  the 
gallant  STAUK,  and  those  glorious  "  Green  Mountain  Boys,"  (whom  our  little 
sister,  Vermont,  claims,  but  there  was  not  a  "mother's  son"  of  them  that 
to  her.)  whom  he  called  forth  and  brought  to  his  standard  ;  and  I 
should   say  "  there  were  giants   in   these   days."      And  I  should  come  along 
ther  un  the  stream   of  time,  when  the  Constitution  of  our 
Lfl    iii   danger  —  when  we   required  great   and  noble  men  to  stand 
in  it-  Mid  point  you  to   DAMKL  WKINTJ:!;,  and  JKIM^MMI   .MASON.

were  giants  in  those  days."      [Applan.-e.j

not,  perhaps,  proper    to  say  of  the   living  what   we  would  of  the  dead.      I

unsure  you  that  the  drl>t  is  good  for  a  hundred  cents  on  the  dollar,  principal 
and  interest.  I  do  not  know  what  the  rate  of  interest  may  be  to-day  in

of  that.  [Applause.]  .  :.  "

,  to   the   circumstances   connected  with  her  and  the  settlement  of  our  town.

it  came  to  be  a  politi  ion,  and  the  antinomian  party  was  voted 

Finally.   Ann   Ilutchinson   and   Jnhn    WTieelright,  and   a  few  others 
g  spirits  were  exiled  from  Massachusetts  eolony. 
or  the  society  of  its  citizens;  "  and  in  liio*,  tiny  removed  to  th.

and  in  the  beautiful  language  of  Bancroft,    "  at  the  head   ol'  the   tide

the  voluntary  combination  of  the  inhabitants.''      [Cheers.] 

Then1    they   established    the    very   lir.-t    church    ever    assembled   in 
Hampshire,  ami  the  very  (ir.-i  go\  eminent,  too,  worthy  of  the  name.      They

olliees.  to   church-members   alone,   as   was   provided   in   3Iassachu.-eits,  was 
adopted  there.      In  short,  their  civil  organization  was,  as  nearly  a>  p< 
a  pure   democracy,   and  in  religious     sentiment,   perfect  toleration;   "the 
:arge-t  liberty"  was  their  principle.      [Applause.] 

When  we  consider  that  no  where  else,  in  the  new  world  or  the  old,  there 
1  then  any  true   religious  toleration,  the   liberal  cour.-e  of  the  Antino-

I    feel   proud,  sir,  to   be  announced  as  coming  from  Exeter,  and  proud  to 

i.  though  as  you,  at  least,  well  know,  without  notice. 

to    the   sentiment   proposed.      Chief  among  the  means   of  maintaining   the 

high   rank   of  our  town,  in  the  esteem  of  the  learned  and  great  n:en  of  our 

laud,  has   been    the    PHILLIPS  ACADEMY,   an  institution  which  for  more  than 

Y  years  has  stood  resplendent  above  all  others  below  the  rank   of  col- 

in    New  England.      That   academy  has   done  more  for  the  training  of 

the  great  minds  which  lime  swayed  the  opinions,  if  not  the  destinies,  of  our 

country,  than  any  other  institution  of  its  class.      At  the  Abbot   Festival,  in 

i     P  .-oiled    aright,  it  was    stated    that    under    the    tuition    of  that 

learned   and  good  man,  I.K<ct.  Aunot,  during  the  fifty  years  in  which  lie  was 

Principal   of  the  Academy,  more   than   three  hundred  and  fifty  young  men, 

who  afterwards  were  graduated  at  colleges,  pursued  their  preparatory  studies. 

To    that    institution    ,Massachusets,    and    especially  IJostun,   owes  a   debt    of 

gratitude.  1'or   the   education   of  her  gnat    men,  which,  as  has  been  said  on

THE  i'i;:>n<;;NT.  There  are  so  many  speeches  and  poems  prepared  by 
various  gentlemen  for  this  occasion,  that  it  will  be  utterly  impracticable  to 
read  the  volunteer  toasts  this  evening.  I  will  therefore  thank  gentlemen  to 
send  them  up  to  the  Chair,  and  they  shall  be  carefully  preserved,  and  pub- 
lished with  the  proceedings  <>i'";the  festival. 

I  now  take  the  liberty  of :  calling  for  a  sentiment  from  a  son  of  New 
Hampshire,  now  present,  wild  has  distinguished  himself  as  a  traveller. 
Probably  no  one  from  Ne\v  Hampshire,  or  any  other  State,  has  explored

MR.    BOYLBTON'S    SPEECH.  J.ij 

A  great  many  bright  stars  in  our  galaxy  have  gone  out  from  u- : 
many  of  them  have  M't  forever.  l!ut  we  do  not  despair.  It  i.-  thought  by 
-unit-  that  the  Proident  of  the  United  States  will  IK-  at  home  aifain  in  a 
.-ars.  Then  W6  have  a  patent,  self-appointed  captain  of  uhat  is 
called  the  "  Old  Guard,"  who  has  returned  to  the  State  and  Greeted  a  kind 
of  battering  ram,  now  pointed  against  the  sins  of  commission,  and 
dunk  of  omission,  at  Washington,  and  doing  terrible  execution  in  our  own 
capital.  [Applai^e.J  There  arc'  good  men  and  true  yet  left  in  every  part 
of  the  State  —  some  in  old  Rockingham,  where,  for  thirty  year.-,  all  our 
Governors  came  from  —  nobody  looking  beyond  her,  north  or  west —  the 
land  of  our  SULI. IVANS,  and  UAKTLI:TTS,  our  (in. MAN?,  LANGM>NS.  l>iai,s.  our 
SMITH  and  i'l.iMMnt.  Some  of  these  men  would  have  been  called  -'giants 
iu  their  day-."  <  'Vers.j 

The  old  ship  has  an  assorted  cargo.  Some  think  her  navigation  is  endan- 
liy  "hard"'  and  "soft"  granite  —  the  latter,  however,  of  a  more 
porous  suli.-taiiee,  like  that  of  the  White  House  at  Washington.  [Cheers,  j 
Uut  she  is  kept  buoyant  by  other  heavy  consignments,  ineluding  invi>; 
"principles"  as  old  as  the  government,  and,  like  London  particular,  ever 
improving  with  age.  [Applause.]  ,  .'

rly  imitatc.l  Massachusetts  in  tur/i,  that  one  of  the  native  speakers  to- 

eatly  surprise'!,  nil  arriving  at  the  State  llnu.-e.  to  find 

hero  claiming  to  be  >ons  of  Ne\v  Hampshire  whom  he  supposed  were 

hum  in  lie-ton.      This   is   DOJ    the  besl  nl'  the  imitation,  however,      it  fa  in 

titation  of  mind  and  character.     Massachusetts  received  the  I 
Tliev  lie  hurieil  in  her  M,il  ;    and   here  is  the   secret  of  ."Massachusetts"   pros- 
perity a;id  greatness,  and  this  it  is  which  makes  her  BO  worthy  of  imii- 
The  1'ilirrims  gave  her  the  bible  and  tin1  spelling-book,  the  divine  and  the 

School-master.  The  early  legislation  of  the  Massachusetts  < 'olony  tended 
ehieily  to  three  distinct  objects,  —  religion,  edneation,  and  et|ual  rights; 
and  however  much  they  may  have  erred  at  times  in  developing  this  prin- 
ciple, the  bible,  and  spelling-book  have  been  studied  and  have  shaped  her

Tie  ,  Hampshire  settlers  were  from  Massachusetts.    Not  singly, 

but  iii  munities;   and  the  expounder  of  the   bible  and   the  ! 

of  the  spelling-book  were  not  forgotten.  Xew  Hampshire  presents  a  living 
refutation  of  th"  declaration  of  a  recent  writer,  that  the  spelling-book  and 
gallows  go  hand  in  hand.  And  so  they  may  without  the  bible. 

Jle  must  have  derived   his    illustration    from   a   land  where  "science  is  in 

advance  of  morals."     With  such  ;;  model,  what  ought  New  Hampshire  and

ho,  •  ,  at  no  distant  day,  its  resources  may  receive  another  just  such  trial. 

.Mr.  IVt  sident,  1  had  the  honor  on  that  day  to  welcome  the  sons  of  .Ports-

not  ;  of  Portsmouth  Only,  but  the  sons  of  ^S'ew  JIamp:-hire.

I  will  venture  upon  only  one,  a-  further  illustrative  of  my  poMtinn.      I  had 
a  worthy  neighbor    in   .New   IIani[ishire,   who    occuj.ied   an   uilice   adjoining

editor-,  lawyers,  ph\>irians,  clergymen,  orat;u--,  statesmen,  —  which  of  them 
all,  if  she  should   claim  her  own,  would  not   lose  at  once  ;i  man  of  mark. 
re,  1 

ttcd  allusion  has  been  made  to-night  to  the  saying  of  JEKEMIAIL 
.  that  Xe\v  Hampshire  is  a  good  State  to  remove  from.  However  he 
may  have  meant  it,  the  great  lawyer  could  not  have  paid  her  a  more  g 
f'ul  or  a  more  substantial  compliment.  She  certainly  is  a  good  State  to 
remove  from.  And  why  ?  ISccause  her  sons  carry  with  them  from  their 
home  that  which  (qualifies  them  to  take  their  place  in  any  and  every  other 
State  where  it  may  please  them  to  sojourn.  If  her  climate,  mild  a.-  that  of 
Italian  skies,  and  balmy  as  the  Orient,  produced  a  race  luxurious,  effenu- 
nate,  indolent,  would  she  be  a  good  State  to  remove  from  then  '.  No,  sir. 
-t  thing  her  sons  could  do  in  that  case,  would  be  to  stay  at  home. 
[Cheers.] 

Imt.  re  needs  no  eulogy  from  me.  as  her  own  immortal 

^Veb.-tcr  said  of  our  adupted  Slate.  There  she  is,  and  there  she  will  be 
forever.  True,  she  has  not,  like  this  sister  Commonwealth  of  Massachusetts, 
a  Concord,  a  Lexington,  and  a,  ]5unker  Hill,  of  revolutionary  celebrity  ; 
albeit  she  has  no  cause  to  be  ashamed  of  the  part  she  bore  in  that  grand 
struggle.  Y>u.t  she  has  enough,  and  much  more  than  enough  to  justify  the 
pride  and  warm  affection  which  every  recollection  of  her  will  always 
riwakcn  in  the  bosoms  of  her  sons.  Those  mo>s-co\vml  granite  ledges, 
.•roppiiiL'  nut  of  her  hill-side:-,  over  which  we  scrambled  like  the  wild  goal  I 

y  beautiful   in  their  barrenness  that  the

37?-.  Chair  mail: 

I  deem  it  unfortunate  for  myself  as  well  as  for  those  present,  that  you 
have  invited  me  to  respond  for  the  County  of  Ilillsborough.  It  might  have 
been  somewhat  appropriate,  perhaps,  for  me  to  rise  as  a  representative  of 
the  toii-Ji  of  Ilillsborough  ;  but,  to  be  called  up  thus  unexpectedly,  and  when 
my  reason  has  been  captivated  by  the  eloquence  which  has  flowed  from  so 
many  lips,  I  can  neither  do  justice  to  myself  nor  to  my  native  home. 

The  town  of  Ilillsborough,  it  seems  to  me,  is  entitled  to  our  especial 
notice  on   this  occasion,  as  having  furnished  to  the  country  and  the  world 
the  present  ehicf  magistrate  of  the  nation.     [Cheers.]     And  it  gives  me  the 
•asure  to  believe  that  her  entire  population  feel  a  deep  pride  that 
-man  whose  career  has  been  so  preeminently  fortunate  and  illustrious 
had  there  his  birth-place.     Uut  a  deeper  and  juster  pride  they  experience 
in  the  assurance,  shared  in  by  us,  I  am  certain,  that  he  is  a  patriot  states 
man.     [Applause.]     Hereafter  I  trust  it  may  be  said  of  him  as  of  his  first 
great  ;  ir,  "  it  matters  not  what  immediate  spot  may  have  been  the 

birth-place,  of  such  a  man."  I  have  been  gratified,  sir,  to  observe  that  the 
Jea'ling  sentiment  which  has  characterized  th>  -  of  this  evening,  is 

that  of  patriotism.  It  is  patriotir-m  which  is  uttered  forth  in  every  word  of 
that  beautiful  sentiment  which  J'roidcnt  I'IKUCK  has  favored  us  with,  and 
which  has  been  received  with  such  a  cordial  welcome.  "\Yhat  a  source  of 
felicity  to  us  all  it  is,  that  the  annals  of  our  native  State  furnish  so  many 
instances  of  patriotism.  Examples  of  heroism  even,  confined  to  neither 
.sex,  we  may  there  find,  which  rival,  if  they  do  not  surpass,  any  that  can  be 
produced  in  the  hi.-tory  of  the  ancient  State&  A^  I  have  listened  to  the 
touching  allusions  which  have  been  made  by  different  >peal*er>  to  the  early 
incidents  in  Xew  Hampshire  history,  as  well  as  to  some  of  a  later  date  ;  to  the 
strong  love  of  country  which  eharacterixed  her  hardy  setters;  to  the 
eloquence  and  sagacity  of  her  men  in  council  ;  to  their  brave  and  daring 

the  tented  field,  and   their  readings  t,>  r<  lin.[ui-h  eventlr

I  ;un  much  obliged  to  you  for  the  invitation  to  attend  the  Festival  of  the 
1  V  \v  Hampshire,  to  lie  held  at  Boston  on  the  second  of  November, 
and  it  would  afford  me  much  pleasure  to  accept  it  were  I  not  prevented  by 
overruling  circumstance-.  As  years  pass  over  me,  whatever  changes  they 
bring,  I  do  not  find  that  they  weaken  in  the  slighte>t  degree  my  attachment 
to  my  native  land.  It  is  a  never-dying  feeling  while  life  lasts,  and  there  is 
not  one  of  her  sons  who  is  more  proud  of  her  institutions,  and  more  grateful 
for  all  they  have  done,  and  especially  in  the  formation  of  the  youthful 
character,  than  I  am,  though  an  emigrant  of  the  last  century  from  her 
territory. 

I  am,  gentlemen,  respectfully, 

Your  ob't  servant,

At  the  la.-t  moment,  I  am  compelled  to  decline  your  kind  invitation  tu 
attend  your  Festival  to-morrow.  I  regret  this  the  more,  as  1  recognize 
'  pei-MiiKil  friends  among  your  number,  some  of  whom  I  have  barely 
iret  sinee  I  left  our  native  State,  more  than  thirty  years  ago. 

It  is  well  that  those  who  can  should  meet  to  remember,  under  such  genial 
and  pleasant  auspices,  the  rocky  home  of  our  childhood.  It  is.  not  so  agree- 
able, but  seems  even  more  imperative,  that  some  of  us  should  remain  else- 
where,  engaged  in  labors  which  cannot  be  put  aside  or  postponed.  Oil 
behalf  of  these,  let  me  venture  to  propose  a  sentiment:

Hon.  M  r.  WOder, 

and  other  Sons  of  ?\cw  Hampshire,  at  Boston  : 

It  would  have  been  to  me  exceedingly  pleasant  indeed  —  I  can  hardly 

conceive  of  anything  more  so  —  than  to  have  accepted  your  very  kind  and 

flattering  invitation  to   attend  the   coming  Festival   of   the   Sons  of  Xew 

-hire,  at  Boston  ;  nothing  but  public  duty  would  retard  from  so  doing. 

As  a  citizen  of  X'cw  Hampshire,  I  ever  like  the  phrase,  whether  it  per- 

tains to  those  yet  struggling  witli  the  fatigues  and  hardships  of  this  rugged 

clime,  or  to  those  who  have  sought  a  distant  field,  better  adapted  to  their 

stalwart  stride. 

I  have  now  spent  a  long  life  amongst  these  aged  mountains  and  stupen- 
dous elevations  —  they  are  my  almost  daily  association;  but  hard  and 
<-y  are,  t  yet  cling  to  them  as  objects  dear,  and  am  induced 
to  believe  this  attachment  not  merely  visionary,  from  the  fact  that  those  of 
our  most  distinguished  sons  who  have  been  induced  to  change  their  residence, 
and  hav.-  distinguished  themselves  so  nobly  in  their  new  field  of  action, 
never  forget  Xew  Hampshire,  the  land  of  their  sires. 

Whether  we  change  or  retain  our  citizenship,  let  us  ever  consider  our- 
jelvee  an  :  Delation  for  promoting,  by  every  pure,  refined,  and  holy 
principle,  the  onward  march  of  the  descendants  of  our  old  family  to  the 
high.'  "ii  of  human  fame. 

1    i  t   you  will  not  deem  it  inappropriate  during  your  festive 

.  additional  tribute  to  the  memory  of  the  immortal  AVeb.-ter. 

the  country's  and  the  world's  benefactor  ;   not  forgetting  the  career  of  our 

merited  Irhabnd  Bartlett,  whose  memory  may  well  be  cherished  for 

16  f>r  the  high  order  (if  talent  he  possessed,  and  for  the  honorable 

and  elevated  stand  he   ever  maintained  in  every  position  of  his   brilliant 

life. 

A.ocepi   my  repeated  thanks   fur  your  kind  invitation,  on  which  I  shall 
:  with  a  heartfelt  p. 

I  am  your  ob't  servant,

((••lit —  whoby  the  by,  is  one  of  the  best    fellows    1    know  of — 

'ravelling   companion  a  part  of  the  way.     Six  horses  were  attached 

,  and  passenger.-  rode  with   the  driver  on  the  top,  and  with  the 

Y\'e  walked   up  the   hills  ju-t   as  .Jeremiah  Smith  told  his  second 

will-  his  first  wife  did:    and,  in  a  word,  had  a  weary  day  of  it. 

In  Che-ter  we   killed  a  blacl  Ice  of  rmnstrou.s   size,  which  we  bound 

to  the  ich,  and   carried  in  triumph  to  Concord.      A 

crowd  i  we  drove  np   at  the  hotel,  and  our  prize  was  soon  seen 

by  hundreds.      The  Governor,  I  think,  had  about  completed  his   studies  at 

\  i  for  ii  \      !f,  1  had  parted  with  my  widowed  mother 

in  .Main'1,  to  seek    my  fortune.      You  hardly  ever  knew  —  unices  wiser  than 

-a  New  Ilamp.-hire  boy  who,  at   the  start,  possessed  either  money  or 

ndsj    aii'l  so  this  j.'art  of  my  story  may  be  left  to  your  imagination. 

The  next   time  [  ,-aw  Kent,   he  was   Mayor  of  the  city  of  IJangor.     lie 

wore  a    towering  white   hat  —  as    sleek  as   his  face  —  and  sported  a   large 

magisterial   cane,   and   seemed  to  me    a  mighty  big  man.     The  affray  with 

ake  occurred  to  me  in  a   moment  ;    but  it  was  not    meet  that  a  humble 

li.-h  dealer  of  the  frontier  should   thrust  himself  unbidden  upon  the  notice 

of  the  "Mayor,"'  and  so  I  passed  him   in  silence.      A-    8OOD,  however,  as   I 

Lyceum-lecturer,"   I  reminded  his  \\or.-hip  of  the  adventure  in

my  home  in  it  lor  tlie  last  fifteen  yours,  still  I  have  not  lived  here  long 
e:i'iu:_'h  to  outgrow  my  first  love  for  my  native  New  Hampshire.  Next  to 
my  bible  and  other  religious  guide-books  in  my  study,  I  keep  .sacred  the 
volumes  reminding  me  of  my  primal  home,  the  "Annals  of  Portsmouth,"  my 
native  town,  the  "New  Hampshire  Historical  Collections,"  the  • 
Hampshire  Book,"  and  others  which  I  need  nut  name.  These  are  among 
my  heart-treasures,  and  will  be  while  I  have  any  such  treasures  on  this 
broad  earth.  New  Hampshire's  rural  homes,  its  rivers,  hikes  and  mountain 
ranges,  are  still  bright  pictures  in  memory,  and  whenever  1  come  near  the 
northern  line  of  the  old  Bay  State,  a  sight  of  the  blue  summits  beyond  it  is 
as  cheering  to  me  as  Sir  \\'ALTI:U  Snrrr  as.-ure.-  us  the  >ight  of  "the  heather"

time  fur  words  to  whieli  my  own  soul  and  that  of  every  son  of  that  "land 
of  the  mountain  dominion  "  can  respond  : 

"  We  a.-k  fur  no  hearts  that  are  truer,

for   it   is    alwavs   pleasant  to  meet  tho  sons  of  iNew  Hampshire,  espeeially 
v.lut  have  emigrated  from  that  State.     Kmigraiits  led  i'or  each  other  a 
pathv.  when  the  circumstances   under  which    they  departed  iroili 
the  h;>me  of  their   aiire.-ter.-~  were   somewhat   similar.      And   nio.-t    of  those 
who   have   left    that    Slate,  have  sought  fairer  opportunities    I'or   improving 
thoir  condition.      They  1'elt  in  some  measure  the  narrowness  of  their  affairs, 
aii'l  de.- i red  a  broader  field  for  aetien.      And  they  went  out  ;   and  wherever 
civilization  extends,  there  they  are  Ibiind,  and  there  they  dwell.      They  fol- 
low all  the  various  employments  of  life,  in   the  city  and  in  the  country,  on 
-nd  and  on   the   sea.     They  receive   a   ready  and  cordial  welcome   in 
every  clime. 

The  blood  of  several  nations  •mingles  in  their  veins.  Many  English, 
Irish  and  Scotch  setthd  in  New  Hampshire,  and  formed  no  inconsiderable 
part  of  it-  population.  And  they  were  not  men  of  an  inferior  class,  but 
were  industrious,  intelligent,  and  lovers  of  liberty.  They  were  principally 
culture,  that  employment  Avhich  has  been  truly  said  to  be 
••  ncare.-t  hea\ 

''  Oft  ,1'nl  the  h;u-v<':-t  t"  their  sickle  vielil. 
Their  furrow  oft  the  stubborn  glebe  has  broke." 

The  revolution  found  them  true  to  the  principles  of  freedom,  and  ready  to 

fight  its  battles.      I latred  of  oppression  was   in   them   an  innate  sentiment. 

They  could  not   patiently  wear   the  yoke  of  tyranny.     .All   ages  and  both 

'ing.     They  offered,  themselves  and  whatever  they 

had,  upon  the  altar  of  their  country.      The  voice   of  Xcw   Hampshire    was 
every  battle-cry,  and  the  blood  of  her  children  stained  near- 
-ilchl  of  the  revolution. 

Their  re.-onrees.  weie  not   abundant  when   the  war  commenced,  and   when 
linated  they  were  left  in  pourty.      Their  fields  had  laid  uncultivated, 
their  hard  money  had  been  spent,  and  the  continental  paper  monev  had  be- 
come  worthless.     They  were   in    d  the   means  el'  paying 
':.      I  Jut.  their  courage  Was  not  broken  by  adversity;  i;  stimu- 
laied  in  ren<  wed  action.     The  plough,  the  anvil,  and  the  |o  m,  repaired  their

Owing  to   my  absence  from  home,  your  favor  giving  me  the  honor  of  an 
invitation  to  the  Festival  of  the  "  Sons  of  Xr\v  Hampshire,''  on  the  l2d  Xo-

t.f  returning  my  acknowledgment  for  the  same.      It  would  afford  me  great 
ire  to  be  present  and  join  in  the  festivities  of  the   occasion,  and  were 
i:    |'M>-ible   for  me  to  do  so,  I  should  certainly  avail  myself  of  this  oppor- 
tunity of  meeting  the   Sons  of  Xew  Hampshire  in  the  city  of  their  adop- 
tion.    I  should  recognize  many  wise  among  them — many  who  have  already 
reflected  honor  upon  their  native  State,  and  many  of  whom  she  may  well  be 
proud,  and  many  more  whose   talents  give  promise  that  Xew  Hampshire  is 
m  to  be  left  without  worthy  and  distinguished  representatives.      But 
i   have  tn  regret  my  inability  to  be  with  you.
